Children’s Braces

Orthodontics for Children

Special emphasis is be given on interceptive and corrective procedures for children : The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children must be seen as early as age 7 because many times early detection of dental malocclusions and skeletal deformities can help reduce the severity of developing orthodontic problems. About 25%-30% would benefit though from early interceptive treatment. The majority of patients are best treated at a later stage. The initiation of treatment at this stage allows us not only to “maximize” our treatment goals but also to “minimize” the length of treatment.

Our Specialist Orthodontist has helped for years children obtain a truly beautiful smile and a healthier mouth. She does so by improving the alignment of the bite while aligning the teeth. Since not all Orthodontists focus on this aspect, in the coming months we will be adding detailed information on how our Specialist improves the health and life span of her patients’ teeth.

Also she has for years demonstrated special interest in non extraction cases by treating them with 3D appliances ,the Carriere system or the Damon system while for caries protection she prefers the WIN high tech brace which are kind to teeth, reliable, invisible and accomplish fast correction of tooth positioning!
